However, if Joe Biden is reelected, ‘your gun rights will be gone,’ he warned against his likely 2024 opponent.
Former President Donald Trump vowed to protect the Second Amendment rights of Americans, promising that under his administration, the government would not seek to take away people’s firearms.
“For four incredible years, it was my honor to be the best friend gun owners have ever had in the White House by far. Now, I stand before you with a very simple promise—your Second Amendment will always be safe with me as your President. When I’m back in the Oval Office, no one will lay a finger on your firearms. It’s not going to happen,” President Trump said at the National Rifle Association (NRA) Presidential Forum in Pennsylvania on Feb. 9.
He blamed the Democrat Biden administration for turning the United States into a “crime-ridden, gang-infested, terror-filled, dumping ground” while confiscating guns from Americans and violating their rights to self-defense.
During the four years of the Trump administration, it was different, he said. “And there was great pressure on me having to do with guns. We did nothing.” Yielding a little bit to gun control activists would only be the beginning of an “avalanche.”
“Four more years of [President] Joe Biden means four more years of anti-gun communists running the ATF. They’re going to run it. They’re already. They’re running it now, just in case you have any questions. But it means hundreds of more radical left judges waging a crusade against law-abiding gun owners,” President Trump said, referring to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives.
“And four more years of Joe Biden means a nonstop war on gun makers, dealers, and sellers, designed to put the entire industry right out of business,” he said.
The former president insisted that the “only thing” standing between Americans and the obliteration of their Second Amendment rights was him. “I’m the only thing … If Joe Biden is reelected, your gun rights will be gone.”
“The sad part of that is the bad guys aren’t giving up their guns. … But the good people aren’t giving up their guns either. Because there’s never going to be anybody that’s going to be asking for your gun. And when I’m reelected, every single Biden attack on gun owners and manufacturers will be terminated my very first week back in office, perhaps my first day.”
